Dr. Darlene Williams, Ph.D. P.A, a licensed psychologist, practices clinical & forensic psychology.

Treatment will take place on their 10-acre farm in Dade City and can house two families of four for the seven-day therapeutic retreat.

The organization will also offer healthy holistic cooking, eating, and living classes featuring foods from their organic gardens and free-range livestock.
